Syensqo (Solvay Specialty Polymers) Ixef® 2057 Polyarylamide (PARA), 45% Mineral Filler  (discontinued **)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyarylamide (PAA)

Material Notes: Ixef 2057 is a 45% mineral-reinforced polyarylamide which exhibits high strength and stiffness, and outstanding surface gloss. Due to its mineral reinforcement, Ixef 2057 resin mold with very low warpage.

- Black: Ixef 2057/9000
- Custom Colorable

Features: Good Chemical Resistance; Good Creep Resistance; Good Dimensional Stability; Good Strength; High Flow; High Stiffness; Low Moisture Absorption; Low Warpage; Outstanding Surface Finish

Uses: Appliance Components; Appliances; Automotive Applications; Automotive Under the Hood; Bushings; Business Equipment; Furniture; Gears; Industrial Applications; Lawn and Garden Equipment; Machine/Mechanical Parts; Metal Replacement; Power/Other Tools

Availability: Africa & Middle East; Asia Pacific; Europe; North America; South America

Hot Runners: 250°C to 260°C (482°F to 500°F)
Injection Pressure" rapid

Drying
The material as supplied is ready for molding without drying. However, If the bags have been open for longer than 24 hours, the material needs to be dried. When using a desiccant air dryer with dew point of -28°C (-18°F) or lower, these guidelines can be followed: 0.5-1.5 hour at 120°C (248°F), 1-3 hours at 100°C (212°F), or 1-7 hours at 80°C (176°F).

Injection Molding
IXEF 2057 compound can be readily injection molded in most screw injection molding machines. A general purpose screw is recommended, with minimum back pressure.

The measured melt temperature should be about 280°C (536°F), and the barrel temperatures should be around 250 to 260°C (482 to 500°F) in the rear zone, gradually increasing to 260°C to 290°C (500°F to 554°F) in the front zone. If hot runners are used, they should be set to 250°C to 260°C (482°F to 500°F).

To maximize crystallinity, the temperature of the mold cavity surface must be held between 120°C and 140°C (248°F and 284°F). Molding at lower temperatures will produce articles that may warp, have poor surface appearance, and have a greater tendency to creep. Set injection pressure to give rapid injection. Adjust holding pressure and hold time to maximize part weight. Transfer from injection to hold pressure at the screw position.
